How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewThe room is spacious, has a/c and the place is clean. Free coffee/tea
The layout feels a bit odd, it doesn’t really have a hostel vibe. The biggest downside for me was the bed, it’s big, but the mattress is uncomfortable. I could even feel the metal frame underneath…
Thank you for your honest review 😊 We are glad that you were satisfied with the spacious room, cleanliness, air conditioning, and the free coffee and tea. We apologize for the inconvenience regarding the bed and the layout – we will look into possible improvements.

Verified reviewI am nicely surprised by the equipment readiness of the hostel pretty much anything needed was ready and thought of. I would especially like to praise the presence of water and free juices in the fridge as well as the tea. Also very nice was the white board for writing messages.
The uncomfortable mattress and lack of fresh air in the sleeping room, constraint noises in the building and lack of plugs close to bed.

Verified reviewI could rest a few hours after a long drive, and could park outside
Unnecessary, avoidable issues. Despite being spammed by many lengthy messages about check-in instructions, the critical instructions are missing as there is another self checkin hotel at the entrance with different door codes, which is NOT the entrance you need.. and when you call them, nobody picks up, eventually text you back after you have found it by looking for 20 minutes in the dark. I 5 a cheap hostel, but it's not necessary to torture people with such a bed. If a mattress is too expensive, even cardboard would have made it more comfortable tp sleep.. you are now literally sleeping on metal bars with a thin,, soft sponge on it

We are sorry for the inconvenience with the check-in instructions and for not answering your call promptly—we will review this and make improvements.

It was a little hard to find, but if you just look for the Dance Studio in the little complex then it’s okay.

Unfortunately, there is only one shower, which is a bit sad, but now the worst. Although the beds are cute, the matresses are very thin and you can feel the wooden beams. For a side sleeper, that can be quite painful in the morning.

Verified reviewI loved the setting. All the people I showed a picture of the room told or asked me ; hospital? beware of your kidneys, sned me a message every morning so I know your'still alive and so on. All in a humorous way. But it was that setting (seperate beds surounded by a curtain that I loved so much. I loved the area the hostel was in, it was quite in the evening and in the weekend mornings. I went into the mountains to return here afterwards and could leave the stuff I did not need in the mountains. The price.
The matrasses are way to thin. I was lucky I was alone, so I could place 1 on top of another. A set of nice matrasses won't cost that much. The fact that I had to clean out the fridge of stuff formally known as food but now was called fungus and mold. It was more then 2 weeks over time, it smelled like a graveyard in the fridge. Yes, guest should throw there food away when leaving, but it should be checked by the owner. The factory downstairs start with some sort of pneumatic hammer before 0700 in the morning. Luckily, not in the weekend
Thank you so much for your honest and humorously written review! We’re glad you loved the bed setup, the peaceful surroundings, and the storage option during your mountain trip. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the thin mattresses and the unpleasant situation in the fridge – we agree it’s not acceptable. We’re already considering mattress upgrades and will be more vigilant about shared space cleanliness. We’d love to welcome you back – hopefully with everything perfect next time!

Dear Mlanie, I read your comment on Booking.com. I am very embarrassed and I am very sorry!!! The girl Ajda with blond hair caused us problems all the time, so she no longer works for us. The rest of the staff always take care of the guests. I myself called several times on behalf of the guests and arranged accommodation for them in Slovenia, booked bus tickets for them, and even looked for a job for one guest. And it was my pleassure.
